  1. That looked like a bad knee injury for BA
  2. As a VT fan, he’s the most nerve wracking but exciting wrestler to watch. He does things you are not supposed to do but generally pulls it off.
  3. Heckuva dual so far
  4. Yes. He just wrestled a 2 day tourney at 141.
  5. Crook will likely go at 141 and Howard at 184. Crook is more than capable of getting the win. Personally, I think BA will either pin Mauller or lose by a MD.
  6. Rumor is Mocco didn’t weigh in. Sounds like the KOT vs Lewis match is likely to happen
  7. As a VT fan, this is one of my favorite duals. Both programs have great coaches and it’s reflected in their rosters. It’s always a tough but respectful dual
  8. AJ needed OT to beat a 20ish ranked guy (no offense intended to the Hawkeye). Based off the limited amount I seen of his match, he’d probably struggle to AA. Brooks, Hidlay and Beard would all torch him.
  9. When do the brackets get released?
  10. I haven’t seen any formal announcement from the team or chatter on the VT forum that Eddie is out for the year. But, I’d assume he’s done. The coaches wouldn’t have pulled coop’s oly shirt if Eddie was fairly healthy or performing well.
  11. I think it counts as second semester eligibility wise. He’s “enrolled” but the second semester hasn’t started
  12. Coop should jump into the rankings pretty quickly after today. Likely in the 15ish range until he gets more matches. Besides midlands, he catches Mizzou and Cornell early January so two more top 10 ranked guys.
  13. Coop is a dawg! Glad he’s getting the starting nod. I think his recent FS experience will prove valuable with the new 3 point takedown.
  14. If VT can get points at 125 and 165 in March, they will likely finish slightly higher. I’m very skeptical that’ll happen at 125 right now but think 165 will end up being okay. Who knows maybe Sasso ends up snagging the starting spot at 197 too. He’s not a giant slayer yet but he did knock off 3 ranked guys this weekend
  15. ??? I gave an update….
  16. Shapiro just lost
  17. There’s not enough collegiate folk data on Shapiro yet to imply he’s unbeatable. If he keeps wrestling like this though, he’s gonna be tough for most guys to beat, but still beatable. The scary part is he’s a true freshman
  18. Not so much of a Shapiro weakness but BA was close to finishing a couple of those scrambles that he usually wins. BA just needs to keep doing BA things and I think he has a shot to get the W either in the dual or March.
  19. 4-5 years of watching most of BA’s matches
  20. VT and Cornell have a dual this season, like most seasons so they’ll scrap again prior to March. I’m not discounting Shapiro’s skills at all, but I think the next match will be significantly closer.
  21. How so? white flag is indicative of surrender. Even in Andonian’s loss, he was bringing it against an opponent that’ll be a legit natty title contender after this weekend
  22. VT fan here with zero inside info but the vt board mentioned awhile back he’s been battling a minor injury. Me personally, I think it’s the weight cut
  23. Do you have to now create an account just to view the flo website?
  24. I’m a vt fan but appreciate watching a talented wrestler. I look forward to seeing him scrap
  25. There’s some hammers he’ll have to beat to get to the semis but so far, he’s looking dominant and improved over last year’s true freshman performance. Andonian catches Shapiro early. That oughta be interesting if Shapiro lives up to the hype. VT and Cornell have a dual too so these guys might wrestle at least 3 times this year
